Re: Think Globally, Act Locally
Respect your elders went out the window in the 60's when the younger generation saw just how screwed they were by those elders they were supposed to respect.Sadly, it came flying back in through that window (who left that open?) in the 80's when the generation born in the 50's, raised in the 60's and 70's, had kids of the age to speak their minds. They found the snap-on, one-size-fits-all credo of "respect your elders" to hold mighty powers that they had once wished to abolish.A better snap-on credo might be, to the elders, "be respectable." Or, to put it in the words of the young, "don't be a douchebag."H4.5
